Animals, you may have noticed, know what to do in the worst of situations; they can manage for days without food, water, and a decent habitat. Humans had the same survival instincts and the ability to care for themselves and their kind，too. With the development of the society, we have gained a lot of comfort and ease in our lifestyle. But unfortunately, with this cozy life, we have lost touch with our basic instincts. We are so dependent on the comforts around us that if you take them away, we do not know what to do without them. We instantly begin to panic and fail to think logically. Man is the most intelligent of nature's creation. Our achievements in every field are a distinct example of that. Then why is it that we become so dependent on our creations that we begin to trust the creation more than the creator? If you do not agree with me, then look around at the state of panic and chaos we are currently in. What is the cause of it? A virus outbreak? No. It's the inability to deal with it calmly and the lack of faith in our abilities to get through it safely. We are looking at our governments for help. Why in such urgent circumstances are we still being needy and dependent? We are well equipped with skills to look after ourselves, pull through this and protect our loved ones; more and in a better way than any government ever could. All we need to do is be prepared for the worst, and only then will you be able to survive. Frank Marshall's Ultimate Survival Code will walk you through, step by step and help you restore the lost faith in yourself. It will guide you on to what you should do to survive any disaster, man­made or natural, on your own, with the right kind of advance preparation. It talks about disaster management at the most basic levels and how being prepared at an early stage can save you a lot of grief later. It is a survival guide based on the real­life experiences of an army man aiming to teach you the basic survival methods when a disaster strikes. 5．What does the underlined word “creator” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A．Nature. B．Achievement. C．Mankind. D．Government. 6．What does the writer advise us to do in disasters? A．To be equipped with multiple skills. B．To be appreciative of human's creations. C．To be calm and dependent on our capabilities. D.To be faithful about the help from governments. 7．What might the writer agree with? A．A full preparation can help you survive the disasters. B．Animals are better survivors than humans in disasters. C．A pandemic is the cause of the loss of logical thinking. D．Modernization is to blame for the panic we are in. 8．What might Frank Marshall be? A．A noted psychologist. B．A retired soldier. C．A film review writer. D．A magazine publisher. 【语篇解读】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人类在面对灾难时，由于过度依赖现代文明而失去了基本的生存本能。文章通过提出问题和分析问题，呼吁人们恢复自我生存能力，并通过Frank Marshall的《终极生存守则》来指导人们如何在灾难面前自救。 5．C　[解析]词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句可知，这里的creator指的是创造这些人类的发明或成果的主体。因此creator最可能指的是mankind，即人类自身。故选C。 6．C　[解析]细节理解题。根据第三段中的“We are well equipped with ...and only then will you be able to survive.”可知，作者建议我们在灾难面前保持冷静，依靠自己的能力，并做好充分的准备。故选C。 7．A　[解析]推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Frank Marshall's Ultimate Survival Code will walk you through ...with the right kind of advance preparation.”可以看出，作者可能会同意“充分的准备可以帮助你渡过灾难”的观点。故选A。 8．B　[解析]推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“It is a survival guide based on the real­life experiences of an army man aiming to teach you the basic survival methods when a disaster strikes.”可以推断出，Frank Marshall可能是一位退休的士兵，因为他有军队背景并且分享了基于军队经验的生存技巧。故选B。 Ⅱ.七选五阅读 My friend James did some first­aid training at work last week to learn the fundamentals of CPR and he asked if I'd ever done the same.Yes，I've attended several CPR sessions over the years.And I've always come away with a wealth of information.But no，I don't exactly feel “trained” to save lives.1.______ Here's what I should have done—and what you can do now—to make sure any training doesn't go to waste. Test yourself before you start. You might be surprised to find that you've got some foundations of knowledge to build on.2.______ Write questions as you learn. 3．______ This can trick your memory into thinking that it doesn't have to work because the information is all stored in your notebook.Instead，write yourself questions for the future. 4．______ Wait a day，then see how much you still know.If it's hard to remember，but just about possible with effort，then that's perfect.You need that little bit of struggle to start keeping information in your brain. Keep coming back. Put a note in your diary to test yourself again in a week，then ten days after that，then a month on ...Use the questions you wrote on the day to keep challenging yourself. Talking to James has inspired me to book myself onto yet another CPR course.5.______ Remember that it's the next day when the real training starts. A．Challenge your recall later.
